Urban Art - The Street Art Project: Stencils, Style & Spraypaint (Age 14-17)
Youth Education

Students will work alongside local artist Dave Simon and spend five days digging in deep with aerosol arts, exploring the ins-and-outs of spray paint techniques, murals, and street art. We will draw inspiration from the 'greats' of graffiti and street art - from the early days of 'rogue' artists like Basquiat to today's highly-collected urban art legends like Shepard Fairey and Banksy. Extra lab time will be provided for students to go hands-on with large spray paint mural projects and artworks of their own, as well as to hone in skills in stenciling, sticker or (slap) creations, lettering, and other street art essentials. Co-sponsored with Higher Ground Learning.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Explore various forms & styles of street art through hands-on application and develop understanding of ethics related to street art.
  • Study street art history from around the world and explore contemporary street artists and their work
  • Learn visual problem solving skills through the use of street art tools
